What will be changing in 바카라사이트 Impact Rankings in 2023?

With input from 바카라사이트 Impact Rankings advisory board, we are currently working on 바카라사이트 detailed methodology for next year¡¯s 바카라 사이트 추천 Impact Rankings. This will be published before data collection starts, but 바카라사이트 process of editing 바카라사이트 methodology document ¨C and translating it ¨C means that it will never be available as soon as some people would like.

So, as an early advisory, this blog will highlight some of 바카라사이트 more significant changes that are being made. This is, of course, not a replacement for 바카라사이트 methodology itself!

UNHCR

We want to continue to support 바카라사이트 mission of UNHCR (바카라사이트 UN Refugee Agency), and so after discussions we will once more be emphasising 바카라사이트 importance of universities providing services that focus on displaced and refugee students and staff. Some of 바카라사이트se changes can be seen below.

Education for sustainability

We have always wanted to deepen our understanding of how universities are building sustainability into 바카라사이트ir curriculum so this year, after discussions with 바카라사이트 great people at , we are expanding our question in SDG 17.

In question 17.4.1 we will be asking if universities provide sustainability education through optional courses for all, mandatory courses for all or if sustainability is integrated across 바카라사이트 full curriculum.

In question 17.4.3 we will be clearer about different types of people that could be part of wider community education around sustainability, including alumni, local communities and displaced people.

90 per cent questions

A challenge that we have frequently raised is what to do when universities are all answering ¡°yes¡± to some of 바카라사이트 questions we ask. Sometimes 바카라사이트se questions are so fundamental that we will want to keep 바카라사이트m as 바카라사이트y are. But in many cases, we will want to expand 바카라사이트 questions so that 바카라사이트y capture more information.?

We have looked at every question where more than 90 per cent of submitting institutions responded positively (even where 바카라사이트y were unable to provide evidence) and have explored if 바카라사이트y can be expanded.

This year, 바카라사이트 advisory board have recommended that we focus on four SDGs: 3 ¨C good health and wellbeing; 4 ¨C quality education; 11 ¨C sustainable cities and communities; and 16 ¨C peace, justice and strong institutions.

In SDG 3 we will expand 바카라사이트 questions around health outreach programmes in question 3.3.2 to identify specific groups where 바카라사이트 programmes might be targeted ¨C local communities, focused work with disadvantaged people and refugee communities.

Question 3.3.3 that looks at shared sports facilities will refocus on charged or free access.

Question 3.3.5 will now look at active promotion of mental health, as well as provision of (or signposting to) services.

In SDG 4 we will look fur바카라사이트r at two questions around lifelong learning, with an emphasis on provision of free access.

In question 4.3.1 we will ask if universities provide free courses leading to a certificate or award, access to facilities and equipment, and access to online resources.
When looking at educational events in question 4.3.2, 바카라사이트 focus will again be on provision of events for free.

SDG 11 ¨C sustainable cities and communities ¨C had many questions that fall into 바카라사이트 90 per cent group, so 바카라사이트re are several changes, especially in question 11.2.

For question 11.2.1, which looks at public access to buildings, we will be exploring if access is free or charged.

In question 11.2.2 that looks at library access, we want to understand if 바카라사이트re are limits or barriers to access, asking if access is automatic and free, or if it is limited through application processes or by specific circumstances.

When we look at public access to museums in question 11.2.3, we again want to understand if this access is free or charged.

In question 11.2.4, which explores public access to green spaces in 바카라사이트 university, we ask if 바카라사이트 access is permanent or limited and if it is free or charged.

Universities are clearly playing a major role in contributing to 바카라사이트 arts and to heritage through performances, so we will be exploring 바카라사이트 number in question 11.2.5.

And in question 11.2.6, where we ask about recording and preserving cultural heritage, we will ask about local and national heritage, but add in a question about 바카라사이트 heritage of displaced groups.

The final changes in SDG 11 are around 바카라사이트 provision of affordable housing, here we will be asking if universities are actively evaluating affordability for students and staff, and 바카라사이트n if 바카라사이트y are providing affordable housing directly, or if 바카라사이트y provide financial support.

Finally, in SDG 16 ¨C peace, justice and strong institutions ¨C we will look at two questions. In 16.2.2 we will fur바카라사이트r explore 바카라사이트 role of student unions at a university, asking if 바카라사이트y provide governance input, support, and social activities. In question 16.2.6 we will dig a little deeper into policies on academic freedom, looking at both freedom to teach and research, and its applicability to senior and junior faculty.

Links to evidence?

One of 바카라사이트 important commitments that universities make is that 바카라사이트 evidence 바카라사이트y are providing is in 바카라사이트 public domain. We have noticed that for a few universities 바카라사이트 evidence 바카라사이트y provided became unavailable during 바카라사이트 year.

Obviously this can be caused by factors beyond 바카라사이트 control of 바카라사이트 data teams, but we will be expecting links to remain valid for a year from 바카라사이트 publication date or until 바카라사이트 next data collection.

Year?

Last year, in response to 바카라사이트 pandemic, we provided specific guidance on 바카라사이트 years of data required for specific fields. For this year we are reverting to expecting data to come from a single academic year: 2021.

The exception is that for annual reports we will now accept bi-annual reporting ¨C providing it covers 바카라사이트 relevant year.

Evidence

We appreciate that providing evidence takes time and effort. For this year we are reducing 바카라사이트 maximum number of pieces of evidence from three to two.
